Abstract
Functional neuroimaging has an important role in non-invasive diagnosis of neurodegenerative disorders. There are now large volumes of imaging data generated by functional imaging technologies and so there is a need to efficiently manage and retrieve these data. In this paper, we propose a new scheme for efficient 3D content-based neurological image retrieval. 3D pathology-centric masks were adaptively designed and applied for extracting CMRGlc (cerebral metabolic rate of glucose consumption) texture features with volumetric co-occurrence matrices from neurological FDG PET images. Our results, using 93 clinical dementia studies, show that our approach offers a robust and efficient retrieval mechanism for relevant clinical cases and provides advantages in image data analysis and management.
